the expression for the sum to n terms of some arithmetic sequence are given Below.
find the expression for the nth term of each:
I,n square + 2n
ii, 2n square+n
Answers
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1 ) sum = n²+2n
common difference,d = 2xcoefficient of n²
= 2x1
= 2
first term,f = sum of coefficients of all terms = 1+2 = 3
nth term = dn+(f-d)
= 2n+(3-2)
= 2n+1
or
sum = n²+2n
sum of first term = first term = 1²+2x1 = 1+2 = 3
sum of first two terms = first term +second term = 2²+2x2
3 +second term = 4+4
second term = 8-3
= 5
common difference, d = 2nd term - 1st term
= 5-3 = 2
nth term = dn+(f-d)
= 2n+(3-2)
= 2n+1
2) sum = 2n²+n
common difference, d = 2xcoefficient of n²
= 2x2 = 4
first term,f = sum of all coefficients of n
= 2+1 = 3
nth term = dn+(f-d)
= 4n+(3-4)
= 4n+(-1)
= 4n-1
